Hey, I'm Ben. Forgive the daft username; it was a jokey name that got thrown around by one of my old bands many moons ago. I'm a student at the University at Leeds studying Television Production.
I love playing the guitar, else I wouldn't be here would I? I have a 'home' band called After Midnight, which I really enjoy. I'm also looking into setting up a group at university as soon as I can.
I'm always looking to improve myself as a guitar player; trying new genres and playing styles is all part of the fun! I'd like to take up a second instrument eventually, probably a classical instrument as I feel that classical music is a completely different world from the music I usually listen to, and one that I'd love to explore.
I enjoy reading, going to the gym, running, driving in the Honda Jazz I came into ownership of in bizarre circumstances, doing fuck all with my mates, getting pissed and having memorable stories to tell about it.
